Ammen Family Cremation & Funeral Care

Ammen Family Funeral Care is a funeral care brand operating three locations in Brevard County, Florida, in the Palm Bay metropolitan area. The brand was established in 1971 when George W. Ammen, Jr. founded South Brevard Funeral Home in Melbourne. Its locations include a funeral home with an on-site crematory, a full-service funeral home, and an arrangement center, providing families across Brevard County with a range of facility types and service options. Each location operates within its own community and serves families in its surrounding area directly. The facilities, on-site capabilities, and available services vary by location — the Melbourne location, for example, includes an on-site crematory, while the Palm Bay location arranges cremation services performed at the Melbourne facility, and the Rockledge location operates as an arrangement center without chapel or reception space. Families work with the staff at their chosen location through the arrangement process. Burial services, cremation services, funeral and memorial services, pre-need planning, and ash scattering assistance are available across all three locations. Spanish-language services are available at the Palm Bay and Rockledge locations. Across locations, families consistently note in reviews that individual staff members are recognized by name — a pattern that reflects the personal, direct nature of the arrangement experience at each site. Detailed information about services, facility features, and arrangement options for each location is available on the individual location pages.
